Herein, a novel type of red-emitting carbon dots called TN-CDs was created via a one-step hydrothermal approach using neutral red and tartaric acid as raw materials. The fluorescence of TN-CDs was gradually quenched as the amount of water increased, and the color of the solution changed from yellow to pink mauve (or purple to pink). The reaction could be completed within only 5 s in various organic solvents such as N,N-Dimethylformamide (DMF), methanol (MeOH), acetonitrile (ACN), and ethanol (EtOH) with linear detection ranges of 1.2%–35.0%, 0.5%–20.0%, 0.25%–5.0% and 0%–16.0%, respectively. In addition, we prepared a reusable test strip and then combined it with TN-CDs to detect water content in DMF, as well as integrated it with smartphone software, a UV lamp, and a dark chamber for real-time, on-site, visual quantitative detection of the water content.
